I guess at 6 all the jedi either on the trail or using the bug were stacked at the but by the entrance, i ended up killing 3 alone while they were all afk.
There was atleast 20 jedi afk (2+ at each trail)

I'm on chil.

Sorry about the total sloppyness of my first post.
I was in a huge hurry to kill my last jedi before the server downtime.
Heres the full story:


At 6:15am Eastern Time me and a friend went to kashyyyk to track down a bounty I had, we went through the usual spots and finaly I said I'd go check the ryat trail. So off I went and picked a random number (4), after taking a few steps I noticed a bunch of players all at the same spot, these turned out to be jedi.
I told me friend to get his ass to a terminal and pick from a list of names I gave him, we then proceeded to pickoff jedi one by one before the downtime at 7.

I checked other trails and they all had jedi stacked in the same location in the same hut.
I can only asume that they were all standing at the bridge afk (some were auto-healing).

So it may be that you are no longer allowed to use the bugged bridge.

naw if they were all standing in the same place at the top of the ryatt trail they probably just died and got cloned there.

They were afk grinding and ended up cloning. I generally get up at 5 am most days becuase the afk grinders will be cloned there. I can usually start my day off with a cool million this way.

LOL!


Now dont get me wrong, AFKer should be punished, but if the afk jedi was killed by a BH on the trails and cloned, it is a fairly good bet that they did not generate any visability after their BH death, I think a fairer system should give the dead jedi freedom from the terms after BH death as long as he/she does not get any more visability(if their visability was real high if they use any force attack again they pop right back on). This is just a thought to maybe get jedi to fight more often.

Shhhhhhhh.... this was my cash cow! grr now everyone will be doing this! j/k. But, yea, shortly after the expansion came out, I was up one morning very early and logged in and to my suprise i notice alot of AFK jedi just hanging out, on alot of the different instances of the trail, this got me thinking and I came to the same conclusion that you did they had cloned while AFK, Early on i made alot of ez cash just farming those spots early in the morning (like shooting meatlumps in a barrel). Unfortunatley, im not a morning person or i would do that more often (got to get my beauty sleep).

Oh, that's the way it does work. After you die from a BH, you have no visibility until you generate more.


HOWEVER, many AFK macros include infusion/aura sets, which means they'll still keep running after the Jedi got killed and clones. This generates more visibility for them. I love how it works.

ah ha, since I do not afk macro, besides and attack macro while hitting the head, I did not realize that the macros being used were healing or running aura....Kill em all. Would be funny to go back and forth to get the same mission, Jedi would come back to a neg xp total for his night of AFK grinding.

clone campers are lame. but any Jedi that AFKs takes that risk... it would truly suck to wake up several million in the hole from afking, so a prudent JEdi would bear that in mind when deciding if the risk of afk is worth the possible rewards.

I'm trying to figure something out here.


If they were AFK when they died, what would cause them to accept the clone activation dialog? I am fairly familiar with in-game macros, and I can't think ofa line commandthey would use for AFK grinding that would have this effect.


Is this evidence of some third-party macro being used?
